</span>I think LLVM's jump table pass requires explicit function annotations<br>
in the IR for functions that should go via the table, which Clang<br>
doesn't create. Something like this in its simplest form:<br>
<br>
define void @foo() unnamed_addr jumptable {<br>
ret void<br>
}<br>
<br>
define void @main() {<br>
%var = alloca void()*<br>
store void()* @foo, void()** %var<br>
%func = load void()** %var<br>
call void %func()<br>
ret void<br>
}<br></blockquote><div><br></div></span><div> You're right. It seems we need to manually annotate the IR function in this case. I just found a clang patch which Tom Roeder provided (<a href="http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.clang.scm/102395" target="_blank">http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.clang.scm/102395</a>). And I tried it, it works with clang -ffcif test.c.</div></div></div></div></div></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Yes, that's the right patch to use. You might also want to look at the test cases in, e.g., test/CodeGen/X86/jump_table*.ll to see the code that is generated by the annotations. I'd be happy to answer other questions you might have.</div><div><br></div></div></div></div>
